Let's see Deb... I had nothing better to do, I had two or three hours to kill, there was nothing open on the Stephen Street Mall, I had a computer, WiFi, a strong desire to conceive a blog, piece and quiet, a queen size bed (all to myself) and, as it happens, just enough IT skills to pull it off.

Now if I was a moto guy instead of a boring scooter commuter guy, I might have used those resources in a whole other more interesting way... but I might not be blogging about it.

Brandy mainly there's a lot of guy stuff that was born or raised in Calgary: cowboy gear, pick up trucks, and the Palomino Smokehouse. You know the Palomino was conceived by guys, because they have beer, ribs, pulled pork, brisket, and bacon-wrapped corn on the cob so that you get your veggies.

About Life on two wheels

Welcome

I am David Masse, and this is Life on two wheels.

Life on two wheels began as a way to explore my decision to commute to my job in downtown Montreal from my home in the suburbs on a Vespa motor scooter, and the byline for my journal was the Scoot Commute. Today I live in Toronto, I've expanded the scope of topics I cover here, and I've added a YouTube channel as well.

Over time my life on two wheels became much more than a scooter commuting story. My Vespa and my web and video journals became a gateway to wonderful new experiences, remarkable adventures, and enduring friendships.

The links at the top of the page make it easier for you access the information in this journal in a more useful way, organized by topic, as well as a link to the YouTube video journals.

If I've helped you, and if I've entertained you along the way, then I've done what I set out to do. Please feel free to post comments, I love to hear from readers and viewers, so don't be shy. I even do requests, and will do my best to dig up information to help readers out.

I've also hosted guest posts, most recently an excellent post by Jim Mandle that came out of an e-mail exchange.

It's all good fun, a multifaceted web and YouTube journal where I publish articles with useful insights for enjoying life, embracing the present, stepping out, living, seeing, writing, being, and the occasional rant.

Most recently I learned that Life on two wheels made it well into the top 100 motorcycle blogs in the world.
